so its odd that i make anything other then kitchen knives and razors but i have been talked into making a few hunters adn a fighter. here is the first of the few.

steel is 52100 RC is about 60 .200 thick
the blade is 4 inch long hollow ground on a 10 inch wheel to a mirror finish
the guard and pin are SS and also mirror finished
the wood is 2 tone redwood burl (the 2 tone is for a bit of spalting
over all the knife is just under 9 inch long

all feedback is welcome on both the new mark and also the knife i will try to get better pictures but i am having trouble due to the finish on the blade

I like the knife AND the new mark, Butch. That's a stencil, correct?

NO ONE gets a better mark out of a stencil than you. That's rich and deep.

Props if so.

thanks coop it is a stencil. i am moving into a new shop so i thought it was a good time to update my mark too. o an ill sharpen it arter it gets back from leather
 
That is a really good looking hunter - I'd be happy to have that on my hip. Well done Lloyd!
 
thank you roger. I am tring to make sure i dont get stuck in a rut and forget how to make other kinds of blades
 
I think both the blade & mark look great! One if my favorite steels too.

I'm w Roger in that I'd be honored to carry that knife in the field for skinning game!
 
here is a shot of the back side im getting a bit better pictures but still not 100% happy
talked to paul long today about the sheath work and will be sending this one and a bowie/ fighter that im working on

Fine looking Hunter. Material selection and execution top notch.
Like your mark too, elegant, yet not over stated.
